Ingredients
  

Cobbler Topping
  • 1.5 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.33 cup maple syrup or honey
  • 0.25 cup coconut oil melted
  • 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
Peach Filling
  • 6 cups fresh peaches sliced (about 2 lbs)
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 0.5 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking dish.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt for the topping.
  3. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and almond milk. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, cornstarch, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Toss gently to coat the peaches evenly.
  5. Spread the peach mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  6. Dollop spoonfuls of the cobbler topping mixture over the peaches, covering most of the fruit.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbly and tender.
  8. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm, optionally with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a sprinkle of chopped nuts.

Notes

For a richer flavor, you can add a touch of vanilla extract to the peach filling. If using frozen peaches, thaw them completely and drain off excess liquid before using.
